Mattawan High School - Mirror Yearbook (Mattawan, MI)

Text from Pages 1 - 56 of the 1955 volume:

MiSB Swanson once remarked to one of her classes, The only reason I've stayed here so long is that I've fooled everyone into thinking that I'm the greatest math teacher in the world . Of course, the students ‘realized she was Joking; but to many, there was also a more serious side, for they regard Miss Swanson as one of the greatest teachers they have ever known. With this thought, we humbly, and proudly, dedicate the 1955 Mirror Annual to Miss Lillian Swanson. Faculty Superintendent Peter Stlelstra and hie Secretary Sidney Weiss discuss school policies.
